Nowaks death is inherently political because the police officers made the political decision to disbelieve that he had been stabbed because he's white and instead believe the sikh who said he had been racially abused because he was brown.
Political from top to bottom.
@10LordsaLeaping@flatulanthippo@talexratcliffe@memeticsisyphus And I’ll say again, all you can do with this conclusion if you dislike late merging is ask “well how can we create a mechanism for early merging to also ensure fair sorting”? But the answer is LATE MERGING
Late merging doesn’t disadvantage anyone per se because it doesn’t affect throughput in the post-merge lane. That throughput is going to be what it is no matter what. So fussing over pre merge throughput is insane. All that matters is sort order which determines time spent waiting
@Th_Angelopoulos@angloid0 Thank you. If the parents are ok with the child sacrifice, then I am going to goon for hours to the child sacrifice while moaning. It makes my crops grow better
We're talking past each other. The throughput loss is built into the reduction of the lane. The cars will move out of the one lane at a basically fixed rate (save for lollygaggers). What I'm talking about is the SORT ORDER and how that inevitably affects the time the merge sucks from the in-merge lane cars. Early merging doubles your delay to those cars. Again this is all about "from the perspective of the in-merge lane." Early merging fucks them to shit
kool aid pineapple is one thing but did you know black people have such high rates of anemia that a lot of them develop amylophagy, which is extreme cravings for raw corn starch?
and now they’re selling flavored corn starch chunks as a snack.
they call it Ghetto Krunch.
At least you understand the zipper at intersections, that’s a step above most drivers. But if you’re merging early on the highway, even at high speed, you have to realize the car behind you eventually backs off and you just created a car-delay ripple in the in-merge lane, I don’t know what to tell you if you don’t.
Roadway throughput is not infinite, it is influenced by things as subtle as road curvature which is why jamitrons (look it up) exist, but it is most dramatically influenced by LANE COUNT. Ultimately the currency of this finite substance is following-distance-comfort, which has fluctuating (not just locally, but throughout the day, i.e. morning rush hour drivers are far more comfortable tailgating) but nonetheless firm values. Decreasing lane count is GOING to cause a jam. It can’t be alleviated by “merging without braking” because decreasing lane count does not magically chop local operating following-distance-comfort in half.
I’m talking about from the perspective of all the cars in the right lane that Car A merges in front of. If at the last moment, from their perspective, that’s one A. If early, from their perspective, two As. And that’s true for every early merger. It’s why the in-merge lane moves slower (not only is longer, but slower)
Car A merging in front of car B early just creates a NEW car A, so cars B +n in right lane are now FORCED to wait for 2 As instead of 1. This is only NOT true if somehow magically the left lane (which REMINDER hasn’t ended yet, that’s the whole point!) produces 0 new cars for the remaining however long the duration between early merge and passage through last possible merge is, which IRL never happen
